Temporal Distribution Patterns of Cryptic <i>Brachionus calyciflorus</i> (Rotifera) Species in Relation to Biogeographical Gradient Associated with Latitude

Sympatric distribution and temporal overlap of cryptic zooplankton species pose a challenge to the framework of the niche differentiation theory and the mechanisms allowing competitor coexistence. We applied the methods of phylogenetic analysis, DNA taxonomy, and statistical analysis to study the te...
